Beskrivning
Welcome to Lilla Hyttnäs, home to two of the greatest artists Sweden has ever seen. When Carl and Karin Larsson moved back to Sweden after several years abroad, Karin’s father gave them a small cottage in Sundborn. The cottage in Dalarna became Carl and Karin’s joint art project where their artistic talents resulted in an unusually modern and personal architecture, color scheme and interior design. Through Carl’s paintings, it has become one of the world’s most famous homes. The light, Karin’s free interior design style and the lively family life, as depicted in Carl’s beloved watercolors, have become synonymous with the image of Sweden.
Now Lilla Hyttnäs invites you to come and see it as it has never been seen before. With engaging texts providing historical context and stunning photography styled by Elsa Billgren, all admirers of the turn-of-the-century artists will have the chance to discover their greatest work: the home. ETT HEM gives a unique insight into one of Sweden’s most famous homes. With Carl and Karin Larsson’s life and artistry in focus, lifestyle expert Elsa Billgren shows the home and inspires you to create the same feeling in your own home. Carl & Karin Larsson were active in turn-of-the-century Sweden. Their artistry worked in strong symbiosis, with her creating the environments that he then depicted.
The motifs from their home Lilla Hyttnäs in Sundborn have come to represent the image of Sweden and are loved the world over.
